Hi all,
Am currently in preparations for a SE Asian trip with a few mates in March/April next year. Part of our plans were to spend a few days in Bali watching the Cricket World Cup Qtr Finals before heading on to Singapore and Kuala Lumpur.
Unfortunately, have noted that Nyepi Day occurs on the 21st of March 2015 (Saturday). In all my years and trips to Bali I have avoided Nyepi like the plague by either escaping the island or simply not being there for that time of year, so have absolutely no idea of what to expect.
Just curious what time the bars and restaurants are likely to close on the Friday night (night before Nyepi) and how easy it is to get around the day after Nyepi, as we plan to catch an early flight to Singapore on the Sunday morning. We can handle wasting a day on the saturday (Nyepi), especially if it is nursing a sore head after a big friday (the day Australia is scheduled to have their Qtr final, should they make it that far).
Any info would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Adam
